Abstract:
The 2012 International Research Congress on Integrative Medicine and Health was held in the US in Portland, Oregon on May 15-18, 2012. This conference was organized by the International Society for Complementary Medicine Research (ISCMR) and the Consortium of Academic Health Centers for Integrative Medicine (CAHCIM) . There were 1000 participants at the conference, which offered 7 workshops, 8plenary sessions, 30 symposiums, 65 oral presentations, and 433posters. Many researchers with grants from NIH or NCCAM gave presentations. These presentations were not only about acupuncture but also complementary and alternative medicine in general. My attendance to this conference was sponsored by the Department of International Affairs of the Japan Society of Acupuncture and Moxibustion.
